Any developers in the UK
 
Hi guys,

Just wondering if there are any developers based in the UK, preferably near Oxford, who do freelance work?

Cheers,
Chris

I'm in the West Midlands. I can do graphic/design work (mainly vector based), but I'm not great at any programming. Could work as part of a development team.

I'm looking at developing a web-based inventory control system using python with mobile based apps to extend it. I was thinking of using iphones but now am definitely considering maemo devices. Have you got any experience of anything similar?

I meet all the above criteria and I have an N900 :)

However, present availability is nil (3 clients and the flu, flu is winning) and I'm more low level hacker than you're after anyway, I suspect.

Hope that you fight off the flu fast. Best of luck.

May I enquire as to why the location of the person is important? There are a lot of developers hanging around, and we have seen a lot of projects function like clockwork where most developers didn't share the same country, sometimes not even the same continent.

Unless obviously you are talking about paid work, with a contract and everything, in which case I don't know if this topic is in the right location.

Ah yes I'm talking about paid work, where would the best place to post be?

N900 is great for signing off things using the stylus, eg. using Anidel's Xournal to sign off pdf's and save them :)

Sounds interesting, though I am pretty busy until the end of January.

I have also written an inventorying-like system (a parts stock control and invoicing system for a car dealership).

Just out of interest, what's your target product/application and how will you track the parts? Barcodes? ;)

Hi, I'm studying in Southampton though natively come from Abingdon - could you elaborate with regards to exactly what you'd want to do with a mobile device - is it primarily for scanning / updating records or for managing the system completely.
